I currently have a fused spur from the kitchen ring (cooker is on separate connection) to a brick shed. We currently have two fridge/freezers in there and a tumble dryer.
I also plug power tools in and everything is fine.
What I want to know is can I replace the single socket in the shed with 4 sockets. I am not going to be using any more than I already do, it's just for convenience (converting it to a woodworking workshop, so it would be nice to have power sockets for my power tools, but I'll only be using one at a time).
As it's on a fused spur I guess it would be OK as the fuse will protect the total of the shed's usage to 13A and therefore all cables are protected.
Am I right?
If anyone suggests running a separate ring from the consumer box please clarify whether I NEED to do it or if it would be NEATER. The consumer box is all the way through the kitchen and my study, so I'd rather not do this unless I have to.
Thanks,
Andy
